After a new crusade attack (dirty work in Libya) - Putin's "rating" has increased, not(!) decreased.
Western propaganda lies about trend of Putin's rating.
We must look now rating - now(!) and not a "two month ago".
Search the trend...
Putin is certainly Russia's next president - the president on twelve (12) years.
2012-2024 years.

A rather biased and shallow article from a Georgian reporter sounds like "soured grapes" after Georgia lost the war with Russia. Putin is a great politician and can influence public opinion. A good politician should be able to compromise and that's what he is doing with state pension program. The biggest advantage is that people retire early in Russia, say women only have to work till 55 years of age.
